Hi My name is Dan Murphy, I'm a painter working in oil on canvas in Toronto, Canada. Artery - the art that beats in my heart, is an art blog I created to show and discuss some of the world's incredible contemporary artists that I continually discover.

About Dan Murphy

I’m a fine artist danmurphyartworks.com and multi-platform creative professional with expertise in print design, print production and interactive media. I’m fascinated by the workings of the human mind, the functions and dysfunctions that enable us to create, imagine and dream. I want my recent series of paintings to be visual playgrounds for the mind, stimulating curiousity and imagination. Like the confounding memory of an obscure but vivid dream. Allowing my mind to wander unrestricted, I let the subjects in these works drift freely from my thoughts and onto my canvases. I love to draw and paint using both digital and traditional mediums.
